Proud as a Peacock: May 2009

Glen Rose Getaway

We took a nice weekend trip to Glen Rose - our last "vacation" before having Baby C. We figured once he gets here we won't be able to do our usual week-long trip to San Antonio. Just too much. Plus, we really wanted to go to Fossil Rim Ranch and Dinosaur World, and the weather couldn't have been more perfect the weekend we were there. I'm sure it wouldn't have been the same if we waited until summer time. We had a great time - Fossil Rim Ranch was more than amazing, Dinosaur World was fun, and we enjoyed some relaxing time in the indoor HEATED pool at the hotel. THAT was the very thing this very pregnant lady needed! Ahhhhhh...

*don't worry - the slide show does NOT include any pregnant pool pics!! ;o)

Easter 2009

Yes, I realize how late this is, and I'm sorry... I'm doing good just to keep up with making sure my family is dressed, fed, and where they need to be lately! Ease up, already, will you? I'm trying here! A pregnant mom can only do so much! Have you SEEN my ankles lately? Well... neither have I...

Ooops... sorry. Didn't mean to go off on one of my lovely third trimester rampages... I'll try to stick to the topic at hand... Easter.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

It was a blessed one this year - as they are every year, I believe. But this year was bigger and better when it comes to the family department. We had an Easter get-together at our house on Saturday evening - complete with an egg hunt for Caleb, Connor, Aidan, Annaliese, and Trevor. Everyone brought something yummy, and every side of the family seemed to be there. It was hectic, tiring, and wonderful all at the same time. While our family is definitely a mixed blessing... it is, indeed, a blessing.
